- Efficient Independent Component Analysis (I)
- This paper proposes a Fisher Efficient estimator in the model of independent component analysis ICA. First, it provides a n-consistent estimator using the empirical characteristic function, and then, shows that by directly estimating the efficient influence function, we can construct a one-step maximum likelihood estimate MLE which reaches asymptotic Fisher...
